Male species n hats (topi)

salaam.

hope this meets u in good health.

I hav a lil predicament. Ive alwayz wore a hat when praying Salah (namaaz) n reading quran. i always saw it as a sign of respect.

But, ive seen many guys not wearing a hat while praying.

my question is this, why do guys wear a hat?
Is it a must? If so do u make sure that u cover the front hair on your forehead?

Ladies, do u feel guys should wear a hat? Do your brother's wear a hat?

Is there anything I can do to open my heart up to Allah(swt)

This is a problem that I have been facing for quite some time now. Its been a year since I’ve embraced Islam again after straying in my school and college years and I thank Allah (swt) that I was guided back to the right path. I pray 5 times a day, I keep all my fasts, I attend as many religious functions as I can but the problem is that even though I am doing all this.. I can’t see to open up towards Allah (swt), when I pray to Him, there is no feelings, my prayers just end up sounding hollow. I want to be able to cry for all my sins but I can not and this has been getting to me big time.

Life after Ramadan

what have we gained from this month?
what lessons have we learnt?
Have we improved as individuals?
Have we gained enough inner strength and piety to keep us as good Muslims for the rest of the year?
What are our post -Ramadan resolutions?
What are our short and long term Islamic plans after Ramadan?

pls share your views....

wasalaam

PROBLEM PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!

Salamz to all

this is a very fun site you have here. I spent most of my lonely nights viewing all the threads. (I'm living away from home on campus Cray 2 ). I have a problem, I posted once before about my brother being addicted to coke who now takes stronger substances. It makes me mad that his freedom hasnt been taken away from him but I am watched like a hawk.

I have fallen in love with a guy at Uni and badly want to get married to him, the problem is that he's Pakistani and I'm bengali so my parents are strictly against this marraige.
